Amid the pageantry and prestige of the Cape Town Met, where fashion, culture and society converge, Lepas marked its presence on 31 January 2026 with the showcase of the L4 and L8. The event offered an ideal setting for the brand to engage a design-conscious audience and introduce its vision of modern premium mobility.
An Immersive Brand Experience
Guests were welcomed into a refined Lepas environment, where the L4 and L8 were presented as sculptural expressions of design and innovation. Brand specialists shared insights into the vehicles’ concept, engineering and craftsmanship, fostering meaningful dialogue as the brand solidifies its presence in the South African market.
The L4 reflected a contemporary approach to premium mobility, combining intelligence, elegance and agility, with design cues inspired by the focused power of the leopard. The L8 translated this philosophy into a larger SUV format, offering a confident stance and a heightened sense of refinement for those who value presence as much as performance.
Design lies at the heart of Lepas. Flowing forms, confident proportions and precisely executed details defined both models, from their distinctive exterior profiles to interiors shaped by material quality and considered craftsmanship. Every element was developed to convey motion, character and individuality.
Global Platform, Locally Considered
Both the L4 and L8 are underpinned by Chery Group’s advanced LEX platform, enabling a sophisticated vehicle architecture that integrates intelligent technologies, enhanced safety systems and a composed, comfort-focused driving experience.
The Lepas L4 and L8 were presented at the Cape Town Met, with full retail availability beginning in March 2026.
Lepas continues to shape a new expression of premium mobility defined by design, driven by emotion, and created for modern lifestyles.
